Sainte-Chapelle

Sainte-Chapelle, a stunning Gothic chapel located on the Île de la Cité, is renowned for its breathtaking stained glass windows. Built in the 13th century by King Louis IX to house his collection of Christian relics, the chapel features 15 towering windows that depict over 1,100 scenes from the Bible. The vibrant colors and intricate details create a mesmerizing effect, especially when sunlight streams through. The chapel's lower level, originally for palace staff, contrasts with the ornate upper level, which was reserved for the royal family. Sainte-Chapelle's beauty and historical significance make it a must-see.
